suspension: noob questions part 2

I did a lot of bolt on stuff with a 2001 corolla. i know how to install stuff, i just lack knowledge in the technical area of hondas.


by law, i think all cars need to be lowered... at least 1 inch. over time, i realized, coilover sleeves aren't the way to go (personal preference).

here's what i have
1998 civic ex sedan
Anti lock brakes
manual trans

i don't know yet which brand to buy when it comes to coilovers, tein, jic, etc., but aside from the coilover kit, what else do i NEED to buy to keep my wheels straight and to prevent my tires from wearing out really bad

here's my list so far:
coilover kit
rear camber kit
...
...
...
what else?


when i was working with my corolla, all you needed were the coilovers. no camer correction kits or anything... just a direct replacement.

i know there are more things required when upgrading the suspension of a civic what are they?

thanks!
